  You are bidding on a 1990 Jaguar Vanden Plas XJ 4 door sedan. There is a reserve price. Local pick up preferred and I will ship to the United States only. You must make the arrangements. The winning bidder has 48 hrs to make a $200 deposit into my PayPal acct. and up to 7 days to complete the transaction. (Balance paid in full and title transferred. Possibility of transferring the classic plate to the buyer for a standard fee.)
Here's a brief history about the car: My wife and I purchased the car 2 years ago with the intention of fixing it up as a "touring" vehicle for car shows, etc.  So for the last 2 years it was mostly stored in our garage while I worked on it in my spare time. We did road test it a few times but only put about 30 miles on it. It has 166K miles on it but as you can see from the pics it still looks great! The major "P.I.T.A." job that I did was to replace the headliner!  It turned out nice and matches the original. The rest of the interior is in fine condition showing normal wear. I purchased door weather seals but did not change them. I went over the entire car and found no serious wear or problems with the engine, transmission, brakes, exhaust, suspension and steering components except for the steering pump. The pump does not work after I dis-assembled it to replace the seal and gaskets. What I believe happened is I probably installed the pump impeller backwards, because the P/S worked prior to my work. I also replaced most of the power steering hoses, A/C hoses, A/C receiver/dryer, battery and serviced the transmission. That being said, this Jaguar needs someone to take over where I left off. It does run great, has lots of power and I have driven it recently the way it is, but it steers VERY hard. I suppose you could drive it home at your own risk but I would recommend towing it or moving it by trailer. The PA state inspection sticker is not current. It does have a "PA Classic Plate" which can be transferred to a PA buyer if needed. This car is being sold "AS IS, WHERE IS" and I will not warranty or guarantee anything except that you can start it up and drive it. Please refer to the condition description for additional info. I may have left some details out. Don't be afraid to e-mail me if you have any questions that have not been answered here.  DISCLAIMER: IT IS NOT SAFE TO DRIVE THIS CAR OVER THE ROAD DUE TO THE NON-FUNCTIONING POWER STEERING SYSTEM.

Jaguar XE SV Project 8 slices record Nuburgring lap down to 7:18.361

Wed, Jul 24 2019

No production four-door vehicle has ever come close to breaking a seven-minute lap on Germany's Nuburgring (we see you WRX STI Type RA NBR), but manufacturers are slowly inching toward the achievement a few seconds at a time. Jaguar announced that it returned to the famed racetrack with its XE SV Project 8 and clocked a 7:18.361 lap, a new sedan record that's 2.9 seconds faster than the Project 8's previous record.  When Jaguar debuted the Project 8 in 2017, it had the makings of a specialty car that would slither into the shadows as quickly as it blasted onto the scene. But it's been quite the opposite. Jaguar has continued development of the vehicle and offers three different versions, including a touring variant. Production has lasted into the 2019 model year, and we recently tested one to get a handle of just how monstrous the thing truly is.  Much can change and be learned in two years, though, and Jaguar wanted to follow up its first trip to the Nurburgring, where it posted a record-setting time of 7:21.23. Under the guidance of Project 8 development driver Vincent Radermecker, the Jag ran the circuit in 7:18.361 on July 8, 2019. It did so in two-seat track pack spec and on Michelin Pilot Sport Cup 2 R tires. Jaguar made sure to clarify a detail about the run and the time. The 2017 time was done on the then-used 20.6-kilometer (12.8 miles) setup, and so was this time. But starting in 2019, the Nurburgring began officially recording times on the full 20.832-kilometer (12.94 miles) lap. Using the 20.832 lap, the Project 8 recorded a time of 7:23.164. With that run, the 592-horsepower supercharged Project 8 is the first vehicle to set an official whole lap record in the mid-range production car class. Watch the 7:18 run in 360-degree video below.   This content is hosted by a third party. To view it, please update your privacy preferences. Manage Settings.

Jaguar F-Type US order guide loose online

Fri, 08 Feb 2013


An alleged US order guide for the 2014 Jaguar F-Type has made its way online courtesy of the good people at F-TypeClub.com, documenting everything from wheel color options to special equipment packages. From the looks of things, buyers will be able to choose from a total of eight wheel designs in sizes ranging from 18 inches on the base model all the way up to 20 inches. While most of those rollers are available in either silver or black finishes, the 20-inch blade-style wheels are not only forged, but come with carbon-fiber trim. Fancy.
Depending on trim, F-Type buyers will get to choose between two types of seat, including a set of performance-style 14-way power adjustable thrones, complete with seat belts in black, red or tan. Other fun tricks include available power folding side view mirrors and a 770-watt, 14-speaker Meridian sound system.

2018 Jaguar XJ stars in 'Game of Drones'

Mon, Sep 18 2017

Looking for a fun way to put the its 2018 XJ in the spotlight, Jaguar turned to a fresh form of racing. The automaker placed three of the long-wheelbase XJL models in a studio, and surrounded them with illuminated, door-shaped gates. Then Jaguar brought in a pair of professional drone racers to compete in the glowing circuit, which includes pass-through of the rear of the XJL cabins. The drone pilots, donning VR headsets, sat in the rear of the 575-horsepower version of the XJL, the Jaguar XJR575, and launched the drones from the trunk of the car. They raced the drones through the gates and through the cars at speeds of up to 60 miles per hour. "The course was a great test, but the fact we were able to go at such speeds proves how much space the doors of the Jaguar XJL gave us," said the winning drone pilot, Brett Collis. "Despite having to fly through the cabin, we were still pushing the drones to their top speeds." The "Game of Drones," as Jaguar dubbed the race, took place at Alexandra Palace in London, but the automaker is bringing similar experiences to more locations. Jaguar plans to go on an "Art of Performance Tour," where it will bring drone and Smart Cone driving challenges to the public, free of charge.
